Como paid just €2.5m to pick him up last summer, and he played 37 games between Serie A and the Coppa Italia, also scoring two goals from central defence.
While his value has sky-rocketed, Como would owe Real Madrid 50 per cent of his future sale fee, while the Merengues also have a buy-back option.
It was at the Real Madrid youth academy in 2018-19 that new Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso first worked with Ramon, so he is eager for a reunion.
Meanwhile, transfer pundit Ben Jacobs claims that Lecce and Brest are both showing interest in Como midfielder Andrea Le Borgne, who spent this season on loan in Serie B with Avellino.
His asking price would be in the region of €4-5m.

What happened
According to a report, Chelsea have expressed interest in Como defender Ramon, who has impressed during his time at the Serie A club. The Brazilian centre-back joined Como and has attracted attention from Premier League sides. The potential transfer would see Ramon move to Stamford Bridge, though no official bid has been confirmed. The story emerges amid Chelsea's ongoing squad rebuild under their current ownership.
Chance analysis
Como have been one of Serie A's surprise packages, and Ramon's emergence as a dependable defender has naturally attracted bigger clubs. For Chelsea, who have been aggressively reshaping their squad with young talent, adding another centre-back fits their recruitment profile. The transfer would be a significant step up for Ramon from a newly-promoted Serie A side to Champions League-contending Premier League football. Until concrete negotiations or a bid are reported, this remains early-stage speculation.
If completed, Chelsea gain a promising young defender while Como would lose a key squad member ahead of a likely Serie A survival push.
Monitor for confirmed bid or personal terms; if signed, Chelsea defense depth improves but no immediate match impact unless this window closes before upcoming fixtures.
